In this week’s message from Nehemiah 6, Pastor Doug continued our Building a People series with a powerful reminder that the “Gift of Battle” is God’s way of strengthening our endurance, resilience, and focus amid spiritual opposition. Drawing from Nehemiah’s example, he challenged us not to let the enemy choose our battleground, distract our purpose, or influence our calling.
Pastor Doug emphasized that unity and spiritual alignment with God’s plan are essential to overcoming pressure, pride, and distraction. As Nehemiah demonstrated, victory comes through discernment, prayer, and steadfast obedience to God’s mission. How are you engaging the “Gift of Battle” in your own life and standing firm against the distractions of others, Satan, and yourself?
Watch the full message to be strengthened for the battles God has called you to fight.
In this week’s message from Nehemiah 5, Pastor Craig continued our Building a People series by challenging us to rebuild our spiritual and emotional “walls” according to God’s plan. Drawing from Nehemiah’s courageous leadership in confronting injustice and calling God’s people to repentance, Pastor Craig reminded us that transformation comes when we do the hard work, walk in our spiritual identity, and engage the battles we face.
Through powerful stories—from the men’s camp to divine moments of alignment—he emphasized that “you can’t make this up” when God is building your life. Just like Nehemiah, we are invited to take bold steps of faith and experience God’s favor. What might happen if you surrendered your rebuilding process fully to Jesus?
This week's message, led by Pastor Craig, focused on Nehemiah 4 and the theme of Building a People in the midst of spiritual opposition. Using a detailed handout and slides, Pastor Craig walked through the chapter's key moments, showing how Nehemiah responded to insults, threats, and fear—not with retreat, but with prayer, work, and spiritual warfare.
The enemy’s primary tactic is distraction, but God calls us to engage deeply in rebuilding our spiritual identity through unity, perseverance, and discipleship. The sermon ended with a powerful call to become warriors in God's Kingdom—people of courage, purity, and prayer.
What distractions are keeping you from fully stepping into God’s rebuilding work in your life? Watch the full message to discover how to fight for your faith, family, and future.
On this Communion Sunday, Pastor Doug continued the Building a People series with a message from Nehemiah 3 titled Finding Our Place. He highlighted how Nehemiah’s vision to rebuild Jerusalem’s walls unified people from all backgrounds—leaders, families, and neighbors—each finding purpose in their shared mission. Through three key points—Leaders Instill Vision, Vision Helps People Find Their Place, and A Shared Vision Unifies People—we’re reminded that God calls us to serve together, using our unique gifts for Kingdom work. Pastor Doug challenged us to consider: “Who are you shoulder to shoulder with?” in building what God is doing today. Watch the full message to discover how finding your place in God’s vision brings connection, purpose, and transformation.
